Late-arriving crowd at Alamodome
It’s just under 10 minutes to kickoff and the Alamodome is less than half full.
Northwestern sold all 10,800 of its allotment but Missouri sold only 6,000 of its similar sized allotment.
Officials were hoping for a crowd of 55,000. The lowest crowd in the 15-year history of the game was 44,106 for Washington vs. Baylor in 1994.
